"...And What Is Done With Love Is Well Done..."

I am not a Vincent Van Gogh geek, but his words can provide some validation in certain situations...like when I locked Chris's Blackberry in the glovebox one Saturday and watched him scurry around like a maniac - ending in a forced bike ride in the park with the boys and some quality family time.
